Book excerpt: Richard Barnum was the pseudonym used for a series of books for children called the Kneetime Animal Stories, produced by the Stratemeyer Syndicate between 1915-1922. Titles include: Mappo, the Merry Monkey; Squinty, the Comical Pig; Slicko, the Jumping Squirrel; Don, a Runaway Dog; Tinkle, the Trick Pony; Sharp Eyes, the Silver Fox; Nero, the Circus Lion; Tum Tum, the Jolly Elephant; Dido, the Dancing Bear; Blackie, a Lost Cat; Flop Ear, the Funny Rabbit; Light Foot, the Leaping Goat; Chunky, the Happy Hippo; Tamba, the Tame Tiger; Toto, the Rustling Beaver and Shaggo, the Mighty Buffalo. In all nursery literature animals have played a conspicuous part; and the reason is obvious, for nothing entertains a child more than the antics of an animal. These stories abound in amusing incidents such as children adore, and the characters are so full of life, so appealing to a child's imagination, that none will be satisfied until they have met all of their favorites - Squinty, Slicko, Mappo, and the rest.
